How Our EICR Testing Process Works
Booking an EICR with Makse Electrical & Renewables is simple. Here’s what to expect from start to finish.
Initial Consultation
We start with a quick conversation about your property. We find out the type, size, and age of the building and whether there are any known electrical concerns. This helps us plan the inspection properly and make sure we cover everything relevant to your situation.
On-Site Electrical Inspection
Our qualified electrician visits your property and carries out a full inspection. We check all accessible circuits, sockets, switches, light fittings, and your consumer unit. We test for faulty wiring, poor earthing, overloading, missing RCD protection, and any installations that don’t meet current UK standards.
Detailed EICR Report
Detailed EICR Report After the inspection, we compile your full Electrical Installation Condition Report. Every observation is coded by risk level — from minor recommendations (C3) to urgent safety concerns (C1). We go through the report with you clearly so you understand every finding before we leave.
Remedial Work
If your EICR highlights any faults or non-compliance, we provide a no-obligation quote for the necessary repairs. Our team can carry out remedial work quickly and efficiently — then retest and issue your satisfactory EICR certificate once everything is resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an EICR if I've just moved into a property in Penkridge?
Yes, it’s strongly recommended. You have no way of knowing the history of the electrical installation in your new home. An EICR gives you a full picture of the condition of the wiring and highlights anything that needs attention — giving you complete peace of mind from day one.
Can I arrange an EICR for a tenant occupied property in Penkridge?
Absolutely. We carry out EICR inspections on occupied rental properties all the time. We work efficiently and considerately around your tenants. We just ask that you give them proper notice before the inspection date in line with your tenancy agreement.
Will my electricity need to be switched off during the inspection?
There will be brief periods where the power is switched off to individual circuits during testing. However, we work section by section to keep disruption to a minimum. Most occupants can continue their normal routine throughout the inspection.
What if I've recently had electrical work done — do I still need an EICR?
Yes. An EICR covers the entire electrical installation, not just recent work. Even if new circuits have been added, older parts of the system may still have faults or deterioration that need to be identified and addressed.
How do I know if my current EICR certificate is still valid?
Check the date and recommended interval on your existing certificate. If it was issued more than five years ago for a rental property, or more than 10 years ago for a residential home, it’s time to book a new inspection. Not sure? Give us a call and we’ll advise you.
